While he was reading to me, Dameko stopped and said I don't get it when he got to a sentence with a weird sentence structure: "The evening of Sunday, October 8, 2871 was a warm one in Chicago".  He reread it and then said "Oh, it was warm in Chicago".  Nyrissa also stops to write down questions spontaneously.  Darvell and Malik need more prompting to do this. When I ask Malik higher level questions, he's able to answer them pretty completely so maybe he's not stopping because he doesn't have miscomprehensions.  How to get him to want to stop and ask high level questions and investigate things further?  He needs differentiation. I conference with him about asking higher level questions and he asks a question about how people decided that Mrs. O'Leary's story about how the Chicago Fire started is the true one.

questions they prioritized individually to share:
-How did they rebuild the stuff?  How long did it take?  --> understanding
-Did the lady die before what the news asked her how did the fire start? --> Malik thought it was evaluating, I disagreed because it was a fact, he changed it to remembering
-Why was the president not doing stuff to stop the fire?
-Why are the buildings made of wood?

What makes a question good to research?
Dameko: easy to research?  sometimes people will try to research but they don't know what to put
Nyrissa: I think it should be hard.  Like we should make it hard because we should make them think a lot.
Darvell: I think it should be like the same thing as Dameko's but different because if you're researching a question it might give you time to research and rethink about the question.
Nyrissa: i still disagree because it's going to be easy to research then they already know the answer.
Dameko: Malik we haven't heard from you.
Malik: I agree with Nyrissa because I want people to challenge themselves.
Me: I love the conversation, can I add one thing?  it should be about an important main idea of the chicago fire.
Malik: I wanna know if important people died during the fire.
Nyrissa: I don't want to know that, I think we should combine two of the questions we had together.
